EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph takes us back in time to the year 1834, offering a glimpse into the bustling kitchen of Hotel St. Lucas in Hoogstraat, Rotterdam. The image, captured by the talented photographer Mary Ellen Best, showcases a scene filled with warmth and activity. The focal point of this snapshot is undoubtedly the magnificent stove that stands proudly at the center of the room. Its intricate design and copper finish exude elegance and craftsmanship. Adorned with an array of gleaming copper pans hanging from above, it serves as both a functional cooking apparatus and a striking visual centerpiece. The tiled walls surrounding the stove add character to this lively space. Each tile tells its own story through delicate patterns and vibrant colors, creating an atmosphere that is simultaneously charming and inviting. As we explore further into this historic kitchen setting, we can almost hear the clattering sounds of pots being stirred and dishes being prepared by skilled chefs who once worked tirelessly within these very walls. It's fascinating to imagine how many delectable meals were crafted here for hotel guests during that era. This remarkable print transports us back in time while reminding us of the enduring beauty found within everyday spaces like kitchens. It captures not just a moment frozen in history but also evokes nostalgia for simpler times when hotels like St. Lucas held their own unique charm.
